A round-up

Oh the wonders of Friday evening with a G&T. <3

Dimash just released this new song, very mellow and autumn-y:

Dimash Qudaibergen - Ризамын тағдырға | Grateful to Fate (Mood Video)


From the blurb on youtube:

Dimash performed the song "Rizamyn Tagdyrga" ("Grateful to Fate") on October 15, 2024, at the Opening Ceremony of the Almaty Open ATP 250 tennis tournament in Almaty. The composition was written by Kaiyrgali Kozhanbaev with lyrics by Alua Zhaimambetova back in 1993. The song was first performed by Dimash's mentor, Marat Aitimov.

Apparently he and his friends filmed the video a few days ago in a local park.

And it made Sir Hairless cry! <3 (He is one of my favourite reactors.)
